  "projectDescription": "In spring 2019, 350 oyster reef elements were placed in nearshore areas to create a living shoreline near Giant Marsh at Point Pinole Regional Shoreline managed by East Bay Regional Park District in the City of Richmond.  Eelgrass beds were planted next to the reefs to create a habitat ideal for the recruitment of native Olympia oysters and other aquatic species.The three million dollar project is partially funded through the Cosco Busan settlement funds through the NFWF agreement and by the State Coastal Conservancy, the Ocean Protection Council, and the US Fish and Wildlife Service. The Giant Marsh project is one of a number of living shoreline projects taking place in the San Francisco Bay, but the only that connects the submerged underwater habitats with adjacent wetlands and upland ecotone plant communities.The project will be monitored by the Coastal Conservancy to gather data on the success of native oyster establishment and future eelgrass plantings, and to construct the additional tidal marsh and upland transition zone plantings. Native oysters are a keystone species that support fish, crabs, bird and other wildlife populations, many of which were impacted by the Cosoc Busan oil spill in 2007.",
